morning announcements

When I was in elementary school, morning announcements were done over a crackling PA system--the most exciting part being the unexpected screech of some sort of microphone mishap. So it was a bit of a revelation to me during my school visits in Frisco that morning announcements are now more like closed television broadcasts--each classroom with their own TV or projector. One of the school asked if I would take part in their morning announcements, in a mini interview:

I know I should have looked at the camera more, but it was the first time I have ever been interviewed by a puppet. I couldn't take my eyes off of it!

In the tradition of theRed Rose Girls, a group of children's book professionals (authors, illustrators, an editor, and one former librarian) discuss everything kidlit related; from industry news and the ever-changing world of publishing to the creative process with all its frustrations and inspirations. Please join us in the discussion!
